Dear list-members,
does the the term "confidence interval" in kriging theory correspond
with the term "confidence interval" in general linear regression?
More detailed: Is the confidence interval of a kriging estimate
actually an interval that covers the unknown mean at the point of
interest? Or shouldn't you rather take it as a "prediction interval" in
terms of linear regression.
My problem is that I don`t know if I am allowed to apply theory on
confidence intervals of linear regression estimates to kriging estimates
or if I should rather use the theory on prediction intervals.

I' d be thankful for any answer or hint.

Yours, Antje Müller
